Yma o Hyd

By Dai Laffin

Yma o Hyd

A novel by Dai Laffin

A quiet Welsh village. A photo on a fence. A community that refuses to disappear.

Tonyrefail was once full of life - schools within walking distance, a bustling market, a swimming pool, and voices that knew each other by name. But when the developers came, everything changed. Fields were sold, memories erased, and piece by piece, the heart of the village was replaced by concrete and silence.

Until someone speaks.

Until someone remembers.

Told through the voices of those left behind and those just waking up, Yma o Hyd is a powerful, intimate portrait of a community struggling to hold onto its soul. It's a story of memory, quiet defiance, and the invisible lines that tie people to place - even as the world tries to redraw the map.

Page-turning, heartfelt, and deeply human - Yma o Hyd is a story for anyone who's ever watched a place change, and wondered what was lost.
